We are looking forward to another year of learning, growth, and achievement. Together, we will make this our best year yet! Partnership and support from our families are the keys to building success together.

Here are the key details to help you prepare:

School Hours:

Daily Morning Timeline:
•8:30 a.m. - Doors Open for Breakfast
•8:40 a.m. - Students May Enter Classrooms

Our goal is for every student to be seated and ready to learn by 8:50 a.m. ⏰ Regular attendance and punctuality are essential for strong academic skills and positive relationships.

Please allow extra time for morning traffic during drop-off to ensure a stress-free start to the day. Reminder: Students arriving after 8:50 a.m. will be marked tardy.

📚🍎 Calling all parents and community members! 📚🍎

Our students thrive when we come together to support them. The Hazelwood School District is currently looking for volunteers to become HSD Reading Heroes, and we would love to see our school community get involved!

By dedicating just 30 minutes a week, you can help a child discover a lifelong love of reading. Absolutely no experience is necessary—the district provides all the training and materials you need to succeed.

We’ll be discussing this wonderful opportunity in more detail at our upcoming literacy event at 8:30 AM, but you don’t have to wait to get started!

👉 To learn more or sign up: Contact HSD Heroes Trainer Anjanette Clark at [email protected] or 314-953-5160.
